he
hounds ran their fox into Dillsborough Wood. "I hope she be to ride
with us, off and on, Colonel," said Tony, when the ceremony had been
completed.

"Now and then, Tony, when we can get hold of Croppy."

"Because, when they come out like that, Colonel, it's a pity to lose
'em, just because they's got their husbands to attend to."

And Lord Rufford was there, with his wife, who on this occasion was
very pressing with her invitations. She had heard that Colonel Stubbs
was likely to rise high in his profession, and there were symptoms,
of which she was an excellent judge, that Mrs. Colonel Stubbs would
become known as a professional beauty. And Larry Twentyman was there,
who, being in the neighbourhood, was, to his great delight, invited
to the breakfast.

Thus, to her own intense satisfaction, Ayala was handed over to her

ANGEL OF LIGHT.

Transcriber's note:

Obvious typographical errors have been corrected.

Volume II, Chapter XXVII, paragraph 12. Lady Albury's first
name appears eight times in the text. It appears three times as
"Rosaline" (including here) and five times as "Rosalind." Trollope
was not a stickler for consistency, and the two spellings have
been left as they appear in the original text.

Volume II, Chapter XXXI, paragraph 1. Trollope seems to use
"necklace" and "bracelet" interchangeably in describing Tom's
gift for Ayala.

Volume II, Chapter XXXVII, paragraph 1. The astute reader will
recall that, in Chapter XXIX, Sir Thomas, after reading Gertrude's
letter, "calmly tore the letter in little bits, and threw them
into the waste-paper basket." Here we discover the letter was
preserved.

Volume II, Chapter XLII, paragraph 13. Here the mare with the
broken knees is sent at once into Hastings for the doctor.
The reader perhaps recalls that in Chapter XXX, when the mare
fell and cut her knees to the bone while being driven by Mr.
Traffick, Sir Thomas ordered his groom to shoot her. We do
not know whether this is one of Trollope's inconsistencies or
whether the groom merely ignored Sir Thomas' instructions.

Volume III, Chapter LII, paragraph 17. The astute reader will
remember that the pony ridden by Ayala in the hunt at the start of
Volume II was named "Sprite." Here the pony reappears but with a
different name: "Croppy."
